We Found A Garage Full Of Antique Cars Hidden In Milwaukee Wisconsin!!

- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- The 15ft box truck was a little empty after our last stop in Western Wisconsin, so we needed to make one last stop to top off the load. Matt and Mike stop in Milwaukee, WI to check out some 1928/29 Model A Trucks. In this residential neighborhood there is a garage behind the house with two Model A pickups and a 1919 Mitchell Model 40! Matt gets to work getting a front axle under the more complete truck while Mike heads to pickup the car trailer. Once the truck is on all 4 tires they work to load up the parts and get the truck rolled onto the trailer. The AA Truck is in pieces and the truck is full so the only logical play to put it is against the other truck cab!!

Pretty impressive to see a front end assembled with the only tool available (for most of it) being a pair of vice grips. They say necessity is the mother of invention.
Thanks for helping us take some stuff off of my dads hands! We’ve been working really hard to clean out that garage!
Happy to help! He was a pleasure to deal with!
Thanks for stealing my old man's shit!
@@bobwright992 don’t know who you are but that ain’t your old man’s shit.
Some how guys , I missed you at the Canfield Swap meet . I was there all three days until afternoon each day . I did well picking up things I needed for my 32 and other stuff for the garage .
We left Friday by midday.
Welcome to episode 3 of Matt and Mike's excellent adventure. Good job guys
I can not believe you got that all loaded, but we watched you do it, great job!!!
I love how Matt can assemble a Model A with vise grips and a hammer! So much Closed Cab goodness!! I’ll have to keep an eye on what’s posted for sale. I need some running boards and a windshield frame for my 28.
Matt and Mike more Trucks ?
great finds
Another trip to find treasures. Must be happy to purpose parts that might be scrapped.. Nice video.
Looks as if your going to have your very own Carlyle some day . Keep the videos coming, awesomely entertaining.
I seen you today at my grandfather's estate sale. My brother knew you right away.
Ha! Had to see what that T was gonna go for!
@@IronTrapGarage my dad bought it. He wanted it to stay in the family. I figured that's what you came for when my brother showed me your channel.
That is tough! It is a fun living though.
Thanks for saving more model As
Thanks for sharing this guy's, Awesome pingkings !!
It never ceases to amaze me how simply those old Model T's were designed. What would it take to attach the front axles to a modern car? It would take a lot more than an afternoon's work! Henry Ford was a genius to build the Model T as he did. Every farmer in America could work on it. For me at least, a big part of the appeal of a Model T is the simplicity and logic of its design.
Now they can reclaim their game room and garage 👍
watching you push the pick up around on the jack makes me feel like I should put down my cofee and lend a helping hand. And, i wish Jacks of that quality were still available.
I have a jack just like that one, and the wheels don't turn, just likt that one.
Very nice Truck Finds
That fat man wooden steering wheel is really cool.
Some nice clean cabs there, great haul once again. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍
Another awesome score Matt & Mike.
Poor Mike is going to working his you know what off for months sorting, researching, pricing, selling and shipping all the stuff you guys are trucking home.
One thing, please do a video of you guys walking around at that swap meet describing what your seeing and what you buy if any.
You've never done a true walk around vid so it'd be something new and fascinating for us subs.
Great content
Awesome score on the trucks ….
looks like quite a successful trip
Nice truck.
DANG IT! Where is my spray lubricant when I flippin' NEED IT! 😆😖😡🤬🤬🤬
Ha! I'm sorry Matt, but I've been there and done that, countless times.... 😳😤 and just wanted to kill the darn, inadamant thing! Haha
Where did you put the bed
Don't go into a weigh station, Think its more than grossed out LOL
Like you said, the MITCHELL is not your kind of car, but that would have sold within 2 days at Hershey .
You could have jacked the truck up rather than ruin a good frame with a hack saw
Wassup
👍
✌
Hey Matt and Mike ! Matt it's great to see how your shop has grown. And looking forward to more of Mike's hot rod build - it's good to see Mike is finally getting to see his dream come to life. I've been watching since the "Sweet Heart Roadster" and have loved every minute of it ! Also "The Car That Ate My Brain" - Love that series as well. Thanks guy's.
Very clean cabs. Those will make some very nice rides in the future. Thank for the journey.
To paraphrase JAWS....... You need a bigger Van..........
Don't ya love it when people sit in chairs and watch while ya bust your ass working? I am always impressed with how hard you guys work, and as a fella who's old enough to be your dad, I'm proud of you guys!
Do not be too critical. Sometimes people may have a physical ailment..like a bad back. Or perhaps they would just get in the way of loading. Matt may have just ask him to step aside and they would load.
@@williamoneal2763 my comment is an observation directed at other people who also likely dont enjoy somebody pulling up a chair while they're working. There was no criticism directed at the person in the chair, especially considering that he helped them move the truck and invited the guys there to pick up all this cool stuff. Getit?
He has arthritis riddled throughout his body. He works as hard as he can every day. So please just be mindful of comments.
@@grandudetonesnob7107 Well, you put me in the corner. Please excuse my not knowing the situation fully. THANKS
@@somerandomwhitegurl People shouldn't make bad assumptions based on no info!
Hey Matt , another great score for Iron Trap. I think you have cornered the market on Model A and Olds parts. See you in Hershey. Is Steve going to be there?
Thanks! Yep steve will be at Carlisle and Hershey manning the booth!
Oh wow. Those A cabs are in great condition. If only I were 20 years younger. Always thought the A's made awesome looking hotrods.
And here's me thinking EVERYONE owns at least one electric grinder; even the dude in the armchair,
treating the whole thing as a spectator sport🤬 Good work, you guys.
To any good people finding this video or re-watching it, the 1919 Mitchell shown in the episode is available for sale. i need to find a new home for it. It was purchased by my late father in 1967 and life got in the way of a lot of things he wanted to do including restoring that car. thank you.
Morning Matt & Mike, watchin you fight that equipment, I didn't feel so bad, I kinda figured it was only me that sometimes fights his equipment, man, you both worked hard for this load of parts!! I would like to say....be safe!!!
God Bless!!
Was impressed with the trailer backing skill!
I always wonder just how you find all of this stuff ! I love that you guys are saving stuff from ending up in a junkyard !
Man, no one should ever complain about the price you ask for parts. You guys earned it.
Shoving that truck around on nothing but a floor jack isn’t the dumbest/most dangerous thing I’ve ever seen, but def in quite a while. Why not get somebody to help you out before hurting yourself or the vehicle?
What!! No tools or rust buster? Nice gold mine for "A" parts. Yea, what's with the owner/guy parked on his ass?? 🙃
jeez i thought i was watching a 'faces of death' video during the spring ordeal.
cool shirt, matt!
Why didn’t you go to Home Depot get a grinder and grind the rivets off.
In 1929 my mother's family including 6 kids came from Missouri to Los Angeles in a 1919 Mitchell 7 passenger touring.
Thats a cool piece of family information. many folks know how their family got to where they are, but to know the specifics of the vehicle is rare.
29 pick up with a supercharged olds rocket 🤔
Canfield swap meet?! Wish I would have known you were going to be there.
We only went to do some quick shopping on the way home.
@@IronTrapGarage I am curious how did it rate against others? 10 being the best.
When your around the Iowa area hit me up id love to help you guys out
You guys are AWSOME!!!!!
I probably live three miles from there. How complete is the Mitchell? Looks to be about a 1918. That car was probably manufactured less than 30 miles from where you were while filming this. (Racine, Wi.) The plant still exists, but I think it’s been converted to apartments.
It’s a 1919 I can definitely find out how complete it is soon!
Is this thee Dewey Gill radio DJ on WMSE?? If so, we love your show and live stream it every Sunday morning here in Tucson.
Hey Dewey. The Mitchell is probably 98% complete. Missing some gauges, the oil filler cap, and a few misc. pieces I am sure. It still has the original interior albeit i rough condition but its there, and it still has the top bows and the remnants of the original top. You're right that the factory building still exists in a repurposed fashion. The car is available for sale as it needs to be moved in short order.
The part of me that grew up in the middle class suburbs of the industrial northeast sure misses those old neighborhoods. And the well paying jobs that built them. But, country life can have its upsides too.
Another nice, strange Iron Trap haul. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. 🤘😎
Is that Mitchell still available ?
Yea it is
Yes the Mitchell is still for sale. I would like to get it into the hands of a new owner that would make my dad's dream a reality. Reach out if you have interest.
Y’all have just invented a new style of Crew Cab!
Neat! If you extend the frame, turn that cab around, you would have yourself a purdy darn cool extended cab with 4 doors. Whatcha think? Ha haa! YES! Hee hee...
.... more to come as I finish watching your video.... 🤔😉
What was all that going for and how did you come across it?
Pretty amazing packing job. Also well done Micky Mousing those wheels on 😜 it's gonna be a LONG drive back to PA. That cab looks a lot nicer than the one you're working on, which reminds me of a lot of projects I've done in the past. Great episode guys.
Wonderful, you guys are impressive, ehat an outstanding treasure you found, I wish to be there with you guys but I am easily 3500 miles away from you guys, I would like to assemble those toys and see them back on the roads, most kind of you guys for shearing it with us, from the endless summer paradise Puerto Rico, Jesús Torres.
Always plenty of harbor freights around. U guys can always buy some cheap tools to get the job done...Save the knuckles...
I love the dude sitting in the lawn chair supervising!
He's waiting. As am I.
Couldn't you have mounted the front spring to the frame at the top, then used the weight of the frame and cab to compress the spring enough to mount the other spring end on the axle as you lowered it with the jack? Save yourself the danger of spring disassembly!
I am in awe of how hard you work for your money!
Great Find. Did UHAUL Sponsor You? ( 😆 🤣 😂)

What does the family want for the Mitchell ?
The car is still for sale.
Wondering why Matt tossed the running board supports he hacked off back into the garage. No reason not to take them, not as if they'd take up much space.
All in a days work doesn't even come close to what you guys do...hats off to you. Amazing!
Hey Matt, just wondering ? Do you get frequent flyer miles from U-Haul ? LOL
You are right , you never know where stuff is hidden.....so , stay out of my neighborhood
I cannot believe that you go on a trip like this and don't take a basic tool kit with you. Perhaps you should rename your enterprise to Dumb and Dumber Garage.
You missed the part where we flew into Denver.. can’t carry tools onto a plane.. also most car enthusiast estates have tools since they worked on cars… but hey what do we know..
@@IronTrapGarage So you can't fly with a 10 inch crescent wrench and a basic ratchet and socket set from Lowes or Home Depot? If that isn't possible then purchase it when you get to your destination.
Thats some awsome stuff in that garage! 👍 I'm going to try and make Carlisle that Saturday
When you purchase parts and cars from estates or individuals do you pay by the piece or by the entire bunch of items.
I can only imagine the degree of eye rolling from the wife of the guy who horded all that stuff every time he told a guest he was going to rebuild these antiques.
Its still surprizing me wat you two can find.
Lubrication 😂😂 saving more old iron 😎👍
hi guys! nice find! 👍👍
Harbor freight tool set $100
Love the push me pull me Truck!
Where’s your buddy Mike 😂
Fun with cars!
Eureka!
I live in the greater Milwaukee area. Looks a lot like the south side of Milwaukee.
You are correct.
Is the rear-end on that Model A called a banjo style rear-end ?
yes
Next time take a small box of essential tools lol
Not so easy to do on the plane..
